It seems as though everything involving Vladimir Sobotka these days would make great fodder for the latest soap operas. It has been a never ending saga of will-he, won’t-he and all sorts of twists in between.
The latest scuttlebutt seems to indicate that the player has every intention of returning to the St. Louis Blues. However, whether it is due to his agent or forces in Russia, he may not be allowed to.
Sobotka was talking about things during media day, prior to the upcoming World Cup of Hockey. He is scheduled to be in the lineup for Team Czech Republic for the international tournament, but that’s another hiccup.
